I've been seriously debating this half marathon, but I have such little trail experience, I think it'd be wise to start on a flatter course. The beauty of the course is so tempting though... as is the Surly at the end :)

I go to the YMCA in my town. It's $39.99 (or something close to that) per month. If I go 12 times/month, my insurance covers $20 of my membership... so I usually end up paying around $19.99/month! Great motivation to get there at least 3x/week!

@iWaffle ....... Just a guess, but...... Waffle House?

It might be old news, but it's new news to me :) Just caught the #FitchTheHomeless hashtag on Twitter the other day and Ellen's reaction was from yesterday / today (?)

I love wine! Around summertime, I enjoy whites more than reds. My favorite (albeit, a little pricier than some) is Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc. At 87 calories per glass, it's the perfect guilt-free option!

I've never shopped at A&F. I just really liked Ellen's response moreso than the actual controversy. A fun take on the sizing of women's clothing.

Great personality in the video! Good luck!

Seriously awesome achievement! You should be so proud of all your hard work :) What a great way to jump start the weekend!

I eat tons of vegetables, and honestly, I've never felt better. My body thanks me.

The last thing I'd want to do on a cruise is carry around my cell phone and try logging the food. Enjoy your vacation! Make healthy choices (fruit over fried potatoes, for example). Take the stairs over the elevator. Don't go "overboard" and you'll be fine (See what I did there?) :)

Nike+ does show split times. I had to peek around at first, but then I turned my phone sideways and it went from the map to the split times ;)

I would really love making more smoothies, but I haven't tried many combinations yet! I always love the trusty banana, splash of milk, vanilla nonfat Greek yogurt, almonds, pb2, and a couple ice cubes combination though.

Oh no! That would drive me nuts too. Oppositely, I used a screen shot of my Nike+ pace for an 8k in April. The bib timer said I crossed the line at 54 minutes when it was really around 44. Quite a bit off, so I emailed the race coordinator and sent along the screen shot of my split times to speed up the process. Nike+ app,…

I have a few different running apps and haven't toyed with some of them yet, but i've been mostly enjoying Nike+. It tells you when you've reached 1 mile, 2 miles, 3 miles, 5k, etc. It notifies you of your pace per mile and your total average pace. There's a map of your route and you can see your time along the way. It…

The American version with Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara.

Last House on the Left Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Both had viciously-accurate rape scenes. I had to shut my eyes or fast forward through those parts. I've never been assaulted before, but those scenes just seemed so realistic.

I love adding almonds to salad (spinach, strawberries, almonds, balsamic vinegar) Also add them to Greek yogurt I've made homemade trail mix with almonds, pretzels, some chocolate chips, raisins, etc.

Water counts as water. Milk is not water. Tea is not water. Coffee is not water. I log my coffee and tea for what they are - coffee and tea.

The grammar Nazi in me wants to correct the title to "Weirdest thing you've ever eaten" Grapple. An apple that tastes and smells like a grape but looks like a regular red apple. I tried them last year out of curiousity. It was the weirdest thing.

Just another woman stopping in to say hello. I've always wanted to be a fly on the wall when men talk about "manly" stuff.

Nike+ running app for my iphone Surprisingly, the green panasonic earbuds that I bought on Amazon for dirt cheap. They don't fall out when I'm running and they're the most comfortable earbuds I've had (considering I paid less than $10) Merrell bare access arc 2 (longest shoe name..... ever). I never want to run in anything…

I had the same predicament when I hopped on the healthy bandwagon. I'd log 5 days in a row and then fall off from Friday night until Monday morning. I make Saturday morning exercise a priority. It really sets the tone for my entire day. If I know I'm going to eat out with friends that night, I work out a little longer.…

I've lost 21 pounds Total: 1532

Dice up a potato (with or without skins) into small cubes, drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil, add salt and pepper, and fry them in a pan until golden brown.

When I'm pressed for time but don't wan to eat out, I grab a few random things from my fridge and mix them together. The other day, I made some orzo pasta, steamed frozen snap peas, chopped lettuce, and added tuna. Mixed it up on a plate - sort of like a quick pasta salad. Healthy, fililng, and super quick. I also warm it…

Great job on the hard work and congratulations on the pencil skirt :) They're my favorite.

Shut the front door! You look so great!
